There actually are programs that would kill the Logic Board, though not directly.. I've asked the Mac Genius Bar what caused the logic board problems, and from what I can tell, what happens is a program over-works the graphics card, and in an attempt to cool the computer down, the heatsync (spelling?) will fry the logic board.. The the compact size of the iBook unfortunatly means issues like this happen..

iBook Killler - Ryan Rafferty

That shouldn't happen- which is why there were massive recalls. The whole point of a heat-sink is to help dissipate heat- not transfer heat to some other component. If your "logic-board" fails- it is potentially the fault of poor design and/or cheap components.

that's the biggest crock of siht i've ever heard... if a machine in any way shape or form overheats and becomes disabled, then someone failed to do their job as a designer.
